APEC 2013 To Reveal Latest Advances In Power Semiconductor Devices

Focus:

This year’s Advanced Power Electronics Conference (APEC) will shed new light on recent progress in silicon, as well as compound semiconductor devices. It will kick off with plenary talks from B. Jayant Baliga and other authorities addressing a number of power semiconductor developments. Of particular interest is Baliga’s talk, which will focus on the IGBT’s role in creating a sustainable world-wide society with improved living standards. In addition, in the industry and lecture sessions, presentations on gallium nitride (GaN) FETs and silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs will look beyond what is available today and discuss the emerging applications facilitated by these devices. Bindra previews some of the more interesting talks here.
